Jamie Foxx's 50-city North American "Intuition Tour," which will officially kick off in July in Las Vegas, makes a stop at the Fox Theatre at 8 p.m. Thursday, August 6.
With Foxx's continuous chart-topping success in music, his widely popular "The Foxxhole" radio show on Sirius XM, as creator and co-executive producer of one of MTV's highest-rated reality shows, "From G's to Gents," and his co-starring role and stellar performance alongside Robert Downey, Jr. in the critically-acclaimed film The Soloist, which is in theaters now, Academy Award winner and Grammy-nominated artist Jamie Foxx is undoubtedly the undisputed "King of all Media" and will continue to bask in his reign when the "Intuition Tour" kicks off. From coast to coast millions of fans will get an intimate, up close and personal performance from Foxx as he brings his unmistakable, unsurpassed talent as an all-around entertainer to the stage. The last time Foxx hit the concert tour stage in Detroit was on his "Unpredictable Tour" which played the Joe Louis Arena in March of 2007.
Foxx is not only flying high from excitement surrounding the "Intuition Tour," but he is also continuing to bask in the afterglow of the announcement that he just set the all-time record for 12 consecutive weeks at #1 on the Urban Mainstream chart with his hit single "Blame It" (TLC's "No Scrubs" was #1 for 11 weeks in 1999)! This unprecedented feat is coupled with "Blame It" coming in at #1 on the Hot 100 Audience chart for a 4th week and the single continuing to maintain its Top 5 status this week landing at #3 on the Rhythmic chart (after a 5 week run at #1), and #5 on the Top 40 chart. Additionally, "Blame It" is currently #3 on Nielsen's Ringscan chart as it crossed the million tone sales mark after peaking at #2 a few weeks ago. Foxx's RIAA-certified Platinum album Intuition, released in December of 2008, is currently #6 on the R&B Albums chart and features an impressive list of artists such as T.I, Lil Wayne, Kanye West and Ne-Yo.
The party doesn't end there for Foxx. He was just named the host of the 9th annual BET Awards which airs "LIVE" on June 28th from LA's Shrine Auditorium and also garnered three BET Awards nominations for "Best Male R&B Artist," "Best Collaboration" with T-Pain for "Blame It," and "Video of the Year" for the star-studded "Blame It," which also features Ron Howard, Forest Whitaker, Jake Gyllenhaal, Samuel L. Jackson, Quincy Jones, T-Pain and more.
Now, fresh off the heels of a certified platinum album and a history making single, the "Intuition Tour" promises to show Foxx in a more incredible, more electrifying and more unforgettable light than ever before.
